Judging from the trailer the Assault Rifle is back.(Yay) The old pistol was over-powered but the new one is the second-weakest weapon in the game. Halo 3 should have one that's right in the middle but still dual-wieldable. The range of the old shotgun was WAY too long. The SMG's recoil effect needed help(wielding only one weapon but the recoil was the same as wielding two? Come on, Bungie...) One thing I would like to see is the return of night-vision Sniper Rifle. Anyway to answer your question... everything should be in Halo 3. Bungie pushed the Xbox's limits with Halo 2. Why not do it again?

Wrong. It was a power weapon. The new one is a handicap.

2 things:
1: The range on the old shotgun WAS too long. I've killed somebody 20 yards away with it.
2: What about Night Vision on High Charity? If my memory is right, The darkest level in the game has 2 SR.(If you're lucky, 3)

Using all your ammo, maybe. Face it, the newer shotgun is a piece of crap, it can't even kill at the same distance the sword can. Also don't forget, things look further away in Halo CE because of the wider field of view. The old shotgun was a proper power weapon. It was perfectly balanced, because all the weapons were powerful. It was still the shortest range weapon by far.

I agree about that. By the way, it took 9 shots.(It was just an experiment.)

I'd say revive the old shotgun, the pistol, and the AR. But I put my vote under old shotgun.

I would give anything (almost) for the old shotgun. That one was more like an actual shotgun. There would be almost no host advantage with that one (or at least a non-host shotgun would be good enough) I almost liked it more than the assault rifle. Almost.

All the old weapons, with the new.....but most definitely the pistol and the old shotgun. I miss the days where you could die or kill in a matter of three VERY SKILLED shots. Made you play better, or, you pulled out a shotgun and layed the pistol weilder out. I loved the gameplay balance and spawn system of Halo:CE......Everyone had equal chance at all times

Well everything. Old and new pistol because they would be a variety around, I mean not all the old pistols would have been replaced some would still be around.

bring back both pistols they're not the same gun if you read the stratgy guide so you should call them:
Nicknames
H2 pistol- Magnum
H1 pistol- old school pistol - and they should bring it back just a bit weaker since we dont have health anymore

oh and maybe have slugs ( solid rounds for gun noobs ) for an alternate ammo for the shotgun since its only good for targets 5 feet away.

I'd love harming my enemies to death with butt strokes. XD

The old shotgun was a nice gun, it actually worked, shorter range than a real shotgun but I wont complain. H2 shotty is a pice of crap. half the time when i pick it up, im hoping i can get close enough(like, stand right next to a person) and pray that'll it will kill them. I've shot a person at point-blank range three times before they died.

Why does everyone want the old pistol back? its the friggin Battle Rifle! three head shots is just too quick, four is good. it is the same gun, but with some cosmetic changes added to it.

i want some kind of LMG .. some big machine gun kinda like a saw .. that has a big clip and you can carry .. or maybe make it so you can carry the turrets
and i think the rockets should be made more into missles ... bigger explosions .. more powerful...

yeah that would be cool but the question was what weapon do you want back, from halo1 or halo2.

  • 06.29.2006 12:10 PM PDT

None. I want 100% new and revamped weapons. Otherwise it will be boring.
